Custom-built over-sea house in Grand Psijic Villa

I do have a question. Every time I've been to the Villa it's daylight. I know everywhere else there is a day/night cycle, but I've never seen it be nighttime at the Villa. So my question is whether there a day/night cycle there at the Villa.

There is no night as such. Yet neither is there true day. I suppose the closest description of the quality of the light would be dawn or twilight, ranging from a rosy hue where the sun appears round the edge of a ruin-clothed crag:

to shades of violet and blue as the 'day' draws to a close on the side near the moons:

The sun, if you can call it that, does rise from behind that crag and start to travel across the sky, but rapidly appears to fade in significance and clarity. It should affect the casting of shadows, yet interestingly on looking at my screenshots, the shadows always seem to be falling in the same direction. I think this may be because the sun doesn't actually appear to get very far in its orbit.

The two moons or planets on the other side of the sea's horizon are constant and hang in the same location. In addition there are always stars/far away planets, connected by beams (for want of a better description) and these do swing through the sky to an extent, although this is not terribly obvious, and their intensity gradually fades in and out .

The location oozes cosmic mysticism, and this is best appreciated from over the sea. It is a truly magical place.

Nice job. It looks good and I understand how much fun it is doing this kind of thing. I have 22 homes/apartments now and have had a blast doing them up. One of these days I'll figure out a easy way to make videos of them all and post em up, LOL. I am just finishing up the last on my Grand Psijic Villa. And for all you saying you've thought about doing something with one of the homes, do it, you'll love doing it.

Yes I have noticed that as well and find is disturbing. I love playing with the shadows and lighting and it is just weird with it being this odd daylight 24/7. I wish they would fix it. They want to do the Artaeum that way, fine. I get it. Its a magic island that exist nowhere. BUT the Villa is just off the coast of Summerset actually on the map. Don't know why they stuck the entrance off of Artaeum. And it is Summerset style Villa, NOT Artaeum style at all. So yeah there is that.
